This content in this page is very important!
It is important not only because the high concentration of the content, the high level of the speakers, but also because I wish you may gradually come to realize how different people's views can be.
I want you to be exposed to the various point of views in this world surrounding renewable energy, biofuel, biorenewable chemicals, etc.
I want you to see how various occupation shape people's mindset.
Research is about diving to depth, huge huge depth. But before you dive, you better got a good reason.
So take a week or so to watch these lecture videos (about 1h each) and get a sense of what our research lies within the macro-picture.
